The idea of this blog came from talking to a number of friends who are trying to change thier lives by eating healthy. I thought we could all congregate here for ideas and fun!
Today, was the dreaded "Salad Night", even Jim dreads this night. The one glimmer of hope my family holds onto is that Salad night always comes with dessert.
Tonight's Dinner:
Salad: Mixed Green Salad with carrots, peas, croutons and leftover curry chicken. We also had whole wheat bread with olive oil. I thought it was delicious. The kids ate it too...with just a little bit of whine.
Dessert: Since Andrew brought home a terrific report card, we decided to treat him to a fun dessert. Normally, this is ice cream. However, since my recent need to live dairy free we went with free pie Wednesday at Village Inn. The kids each had a heaping helping of peanut butter butter cup pie with hot chocolate. They had to be ready explode! They enjoyed every moment.
What did you have tonight? Tomorrow, we are going to have homemade chicken noodle soup yummy!

Salad night is an excellent idea! The kids like romaine & spinach and we could use up left-over chicken & such.

I love your chicken soup. It is so easy. I added the noodles too early to the crock pot one night though. It turned into a giant matze that not even Brian would touch:) They don't sell those yummy frozen noodles around here. So I get to pull out my Spaetzel hopper and make fresh.
ReplyDeleteMy mom will be so happy that you love her soup Kristen!
ReplyDeleteAmy, salad night! I love it. It is a night where dinner takes 10 minutes top! You have to love that on a busy night :)
ReplyDeleteI am amazed that your kids will eat salad; my daughter won't touch it.
ReplyDeleteWill she not eat any if you douse it in ranch and tell her she will get her favorite dessert after she eats it? That is how we started out!
